How to add a single property boundary

You can add a single record boundary in 3 ways:

Start from the record that will contain the boundary. You cannot edit or add a boundary that is not the record you're in.

Method 1: Draw the boundary

1. Click the edit button in the map toolbar
2. Click the "draw areas" button
3. Click to draw on the map
4. Click "Save" to commit the edits

Method 2: Import the boundary (more: How to import a shapefile into a record Landscape)

1. Click the edit button in the map toolbar
2. Click the import button
3. Import a polygon file (if you are receiving the file from someone or downloading a file, be sure it is a Shapefile or KMZ of the property area/polygon)
4. Click "Save" to commit the edit

Method 3: Copy from a Custom Map Layer

See Creating a property record for more information about all the steps of creating a new property record and adding data.

Importing a complex record boundary (Group or Property that contains Parcels)

The boundary of a record that contains other records (like a Group or a Property with Parcels) is drawn automatically from its sub-components. In other words, you need to navigate to the sub-records and upload each one individually. The boundary of the parent record will then be automatically drawn.
